Wowza, IAAPA sure didn't provide much news, but it sure did produce a whole lotta ride vechicals! Listen in to the first half where we (back to James & Bob minus Tim this week) discuss the surprisingly lack of content from the trade show in Orlando, instead focusing on news from an array of other sources. Then, IAAPA does take a spotlight for the second half, but in an uncoventional way. It seems the biggest things happening at the Expo this year was train reveals. And while some rocked, others weren't so 'gouda'.
